Publisher's Synopsis
When Elmer Elevator tells a stray cat about his dream of being able to fly, he learns of a captive dragon on Wild Island.
The dragon has been forced by the jungle residents to serve as their shuttle across a wide river - and anyone who rescues the dragon from its cruel captors might be entitled to a free ride.
Elmer needs no further encouragement to stow away aboard a ship to the island, where he matches wits with hungry tigers, an irate gorilla, cranky crocodiles, and other moody creatures.
A charmingly illustrated book, this comic adventure story has delighted generations of children!
